Answer: 2.94 atm

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure in compressed air tank reads 43.2 pounds per square inch (lb/in)

Now, convert pressure to atmosphere (atm)

Recall that 1 atm = 14.695964 lb/in

so, let Z = 43.2 lb/in

To get the value of Z, cross multiply

43.2 lb/in x 1 atm = 14.695964 lb/in x Z

43.2 lb/in atm = 14.695964 lb/in x Z

Z = 43.2 lb/in atm / 14.695964 lb/in

Z = 2.94 atm

Thus, the pressure of the compressed air tank reads 2.94 atmosphere.

The component which dissolves in a solution is called the?
VladimirAG [237]

The correct answer is Solute

Explanation:

In chemistry, a solution refers to a homogenous mixture of two substances that occurs through dissolution, this means once they are mixed the substances form a uniform new substance and cannot be easily separated. Additionally, in chemistry, the substances involved in a solution are either classified as solutes if they are the substances that dissolve to form a solution or as solvents in the case of substances in which the solute dissolves in. For example, if you mix salt and water, the salt acts as the solute while the water is the solvent. Thus, the component which dissolves in a solution is called the solute.
